Testing a reply.

OK, this time it worked.

I cleared my inbox when I saw the message from Moe. That's why you didn't have the same problem. I've had the same thing happen to me when I replied to posts where the person's inbox was full. The problem began around the time the site updated to the new look. It seems to be some sort of programming error.

I do.

I don't know if he's trying to pretend it's his own work or not but I know I have personally told him that he should put other people's words in quotation marks or a quote box to make it clear what he is writing and what he is copying. He makes it extremely confusing because he adds his own words and thoughts in ways that make it hard to figure out where his quoted material ends and his begins.

When you're engaged in a debate with someone else it is absolutely unacceptable to use other people's work in a way that makes it seem like it is your own.

I agree. It appears to me that he's trying to disguise that he's plagiarizing, not that he's just too lazy to give people proper credit for their words (which I guess in some way is slightly less inexcusable). Fortunately his logic is typically so crappy that it's pretty easy to tell which part he wrote and which part he didn't.
